Chapter 206 Strangulation
Chapter 206 Strangulation
However, Song Chunlin was disappointed. Such important "evidence" was naturally kept safely by the queen. The place was heavily guarded. If Song Chunlin wanted to go in, he would definitely alarm them. So he could only put it down and ignore it for the time being.
After the general left, Song Chunlin saw the prince walking out from behind the screen. The queen stretched lazily, and the prince picked her up and put her on his lap.
Song Chunlin just watched this 'father and son' kissing each other in broad daylight. It was really disgusting to the eyes.
"After all, I just died. Aren't you too impatient?" Song Chunlin complained in a low voice and withdrew his mental power with a look of disgust.
It was the first time that Song Chunlin saw the barbarians holding a funeral. He originally wanted to take advantage of the chaos to poison them, but he found that these people didn't eat anything. How could he do anything if they didn't eat?
After much thought, he could only use the old method. After the vigil in the middle of the night when everyone was drowsy, Song Chunlin directed the mutant vines to climb onto the roof. The vines were wrapped with a small dropper filled with the most poisonous herbicide. This thing was very effective in removing weeds and killing people.
Song Chunlin then dropped a drop on the heads of several people. The herbicide had a strong odor, and Song Chunlin didn't dare to put too much. Even just these few drops were enough to make people around smell the stench.
Those with sensitive noses couldn't help but cover their mouths and noses. The stench suddenly made their minds extremely clear after they were already tired in the middle of the night.
Even the queen, who always had a cold expression, couldn't help but cover her face with her sleeves and whispered a few words to the palace servants around her. After a while, all the windows around the mourning hall were opened, fresh air poured in, and the stench became a little lighter.
However, the stink was not the biggest effect of the herbicide. Soon, the people who had the herbicide dropped on them reacted immediately. They first felt itchy skin, and scratching it a few times did not work. The skin that had been touched immediately became red and swollen. One of them reacted most violently. He felt a severe stuffiness in his chest and was breathing heavily unconsciously.
Song Chunlin guessed that he must have a wound on his body, and the medicine entered the wound and was absorbed by the blood.
It seems that this person is dead. A small amount of this stuff in contact with the skin will not cause death, but it may not be fatal if it enters the blood.
The commotion in the crowd was getting louder and louder. The queen could not help but look back and saw that a man not far behind her had a swollen face. As he scratched, the red and swollen area broke and yellow pus oozed out, which made people feel nauseous.
An old prince could not bear it any longer when he saw this, so he suggested to the queen that these people should go downstairs to let the doctor see them. The queen agreed, and those people all stood up and ran out to find the doctor.
As these people left, the stench in the mourning hall suddenly became much less. Among the remaining people, there were many smart people who keenly noticed that something was wrong, but none of them said anything.
The queen naturally also discovered it. At this moment, he absolutely could not step out, otherwise if things got out of hand, it would not only be himself that would be affected. He could only choose to mind his own business.
However, they wanted to hide, and Song Chunlin would not agree. If he didn't stir up some trouble, wouldn't it be a waste of their journey all the way here?
So after these people went downstairs to see the doctor, Song Chunlin took the opportunity to drop a few drops of herbicide into their medicine. Anyway, the medicine also smelled fishy, so this group of people pinched their noses and took a sip, and didn't realize anything was wrong at all.
But soon, when it was almost dawn, some people started coughing constantly, and some felt a tightness in their chests. They didn't die so quickly from the poisoning of a few drops of herbicide, and the doctors couldn't find out the cause. Song Chunlin didn't want to wait for these people to die, but planned to leave the city before dawn.
The palace was now brightly lit, but Song Chunlin's place was relatively quiet. He ate something to replenish his strength before taking any action, and then drank a few sips of spiritual spring water as coffee. When everything was ready, he came out of the remote palace, avoided the palace servants all the way, and walked to the city wall where he came that day.
Using the old method, he summoned mutant vines, dug a deep pit and climbed out. When he climbed out, he happened to meet a team of patrolling soldiers. Song Chunlin was almost discovered. He hid in the dark for a while. During this time, several teams of soldiers walked by. It seemed that the patrols in the city had been strengthened, and the number of people was much larger than before.
Song Chunlin didn't dare to stay for long. He used his mental power to cheat and it took him a lot of effort to escape to the foot of the city wall in the corner. He did not choose the place where he came in at the beginning because it had been used before. He didn't believe that these people couldn't see that the soil on the ground had been turned over. To be on the safe side, he chose this corner, which was closest to the palace.
Before digging the pit, Song Chunlin used his mental power to check and found that the patrols at the foot of the city wall had been strengthened a lot. He still had his mental power to observe. If an ordinary person came, he would probably never come back.
The mutant plants dug the hole with great effort. Song Chunlin waited for the right moment to crawl in. The mutant plants behind him instantly rolled up the soil and buried the hole. After the patrolmen outside left, Song Chunlin crawled out immediately. The mutant vines wrapped around his waist and pulled him across the river under the cover of night.
By the river bank, Song Chunlin sat and gasped. This thing was too exciting, just like riding a bungee jumping machine. Watching the mutant plant take care of everything, Song Chunlin crawled forward until he was far away from the archers' shooting range. Then he got up, took out his electric scooter and rushed forward. It was pitch black around him and he couldn't see anything. He didn't turn on the lights. He just kept walking forward after releasing his mental power.
Song Chunlin drove until dawn, when the imperial city had become a small dot behind him. He stopped and after a short rest, he continued driving another mountain motorcycle.
Mountain motorcycles burn oil, and Song Chunlin usually doesn't want to use them. But this is a special situation. He has to hurry to the cities occupied by the Turks and kill the commander first. By the time the commander is dead, he doesn't believe these people can continue to fight.
After a whole day's journey, Song Chunlin finally returned to Haihe River. In the distance was Yuexi, one of the two cities occupied by Dajing.
The population of Yuexi City is less than 100,000, but there are now 70,000 Turkic soldiers stationed there. The number of residents in the city has dropped sharply from more than 90,000 to 20,000. The young and middle-aged people have either been killed or captured. Song Chunlin can't even see any elderly people on the street, and guesses that they are all dead.
Song Chunlin found a small valley and hid in it. The distance was just right, and his mental power could completely cover the entire city.
It was still early, Song Chunlin looked around and didn't see anyone, so he simply ordered a sauerkraut fish set meal. While eating, he did not forget to add a cup of milk tea for himself. It was so tiring to travel so fast, how could he not eat something good.
After eating and drinking, he wiped his mouth. It was not yet late. The days in the Gobi Desert seemed particularly long. Song Chunlin guessed that it would take about an hour before it would be completely dark.
What should I do during this time?
Song Chunlin sat on the ground thinking. After thinking for a long time, he realized that he seemed to have not sent the letter to Gu Fengyue yet. He couldn't help but slap his head.
"Look at my memory. Contact him quickly and kill him while he's sick!"
Song Chunlin took out a pen and paper and started writing. After he finished writing, he put it in a small glass bottle and handed it to the mutant vine. Then he held a bottle of spiritual spring water and filled himself with the water while urging the plants to rush towards Bai Ta City.
He was not far from the White Tower. It would take a whole day for a person to walk there. However, the mutant plants did not need to walk. They burrowed directly into the soil and drilled their way through the ground, which was several times faster than walking.
Almost soon after it got dark, Gu Fengyue received the letter from Song Chunlin.
After reading the contents of the letter, Gu Fengyue almost jumped up from his chair. He ran to the military camp in a hurry and mobilized the troops under the disapproving gaze of General Qi.
General Qi stopped him from leaving: "General Gu, where did you get the news that something bad will happen to the other side's commander tonight?"
Gu Fengyue didn't want to explain to him. General Qi was good in every way except that he was suspicious and indecisive by nature. How could a general who was indecisive and only doubted achieve anything great?
So he didn't take General Qi's obstruction seriously. Instead, he pointed at the soldiers in formation and said to him, "These are all my Gu family soldiers. They are from the Gu family. They don't need to report to General Qi where they are going, right? Besides, General Qi doesn't need to doubt the source of my information. Since I can receive it, the information must be correct."
Seeing the disapproval on General Qi's face, Song Chunlin continued calmly: "Today's matter was all decided by me alone. If it succeeds, it will be the glory of my Gu family army. If it fails, it will be the responsibility of my Gu family army alone. I will not let General Qi be the scapegoat."
General Qi was so angry at his words that he laughed: "Okay, okay, if I continue to stop them, I will become a sinner. In this case, I can't say anything more. General Gu, please do as you please."
His words sounded quite petty, and Gu Fengyue ignored him. Instead, he got on his horse, and without even looking at General Qi, he led the Gu army away, leaving General Qi and his entourage behind to glare at him.
"General, this kid is too arrogant. Should we teach him a lesson?" suggested one of the deputy generals.
The military advisor just shook his head when he saw this: "Although the second young master Gu is young and frivolous, he was indeed impulsive this time. The source of the information is not certain, so why did he go directly?"
General Qi was also a little angry. Although Gu Er said on the surface that he would listen to him when he came here, in fact, the other party did not take him seriously at all. Even the Gu family army would only listen to Gu Fengyue. He had no right to ask about anything related to the Gu family army.
Moreover, Gu Fengyue repeatedly bypassed him and led the Gu family army to do things behind his back, and rarely told him when he went out, which made him very unhappy.
However, the most annoying thing is that the other side has repeatedly violated military discipline and sent troops on their own, but they were able to turn danger into safety every time and bring back a lot of spoils. Now a large open space has been marked out in the military camp to raise the cattle and sheep brought back by Gu Fengyue. During this period, the soldiers looked at Gu Fengyue with admiration in their eyes.
If this continues, sooner or later our own soldiers will turn against us.
Looking at Gu Fengyue's receding back, General Qi snorted coldly: "Young people are impatient and will mobilize troops at the slightest sign of trouble. It would be better if he could fall."
Gu Fengyue didn't care what these people said about him behind his back. He just wanted to get to Yuexi as soon as possible, not only because he wanted to see Song Chunlin, but also because he wanted to recapture Yuexi as soon as possible. That's why he ignored the opposition of General Qi and others and took all the Gu family troops away, just to achieve a sure victory in one attack.
And Song Chunlin did not disappoint his expectations. When Gu Fengyue rushed here, Song Chunlin had already sneaked into the city. Now the whole city was in chaos, and Song Chunlin easily blended in.
Those Turks were having fun in a rich man's house. Song Chunlin climbed onto the roof, found a place to lie down, and took out a pistol with a silencer from the space. He estimated the distance with his eyes. He could hit the person with the pistol. If he really couldn't hit the person, he could take advantage of the chaos to strangle the person to death with the mutant plants.
After carefully counting the number of people, there were probably more than a dozen Turks in the hall. Ignoring the dancers in the middle, Song Chunlin pointed his gun directly at the middle-aged man sitting in the first seat.
Song Chunlin took aim and fired decisively. The music at the scene covered up the sound of the shooting. Before the middle-aged man could react, a bloody hole appeared on his forehead and he fell down dejectedly.
The people around him thought he was drunk and were about to go forward to check, but Song Chunlin aimed at the person next to him and fired another shot, killing him again.
After killing two people in a row, even the dumbest person would notice that something was wrong. They were mumbling something, a group of people were looking around vigilantly, and the dancers were screaming and running away.
Song Chunlin fired another shot before they noticed him, but this time he failed to kill the man as he dodged the bullet and it hit his shoulder.
At this time, those people also discovered Song Chunlin. Song Chunlin smiled sweetly at them and fired another shot with the weapon in his hand. This time the Turkic man did not run away. Perhaps he did not expect that the weapon in Song Chunlin's hand was so terrifying.
Seeing that he only killed three people, Song Chunlin was not very satisfied, but someone was already rushing towards him, so Song Chunlin had to jump off the roof and start running away.
The chaotic streets made it easy for people to hide. Song Chunlin used his mental power to evade the pursuers. After those people ran far away, he turned around and went back to the government office.
The government office was in chaos at this time. Those who stayed behind ran out to chase Song Chunlin. Perhaps even they did not expect that Song Chunlin would come back. Seeing the assassin coming back in a swagger, these Turks started shouting again, but were killed by a bullet from Song Chunlin.
Song Chunlin was not stupid enough to stand there and let them fight. He controlled the mutated vines and tied up all the people. There were a dozen Turks left in the hall, and he strangled them all with the vines. Soon, there was no one left alive in the hall except Song Chunlin.
